What I'm looking for

I seek bilingual roles that combine project coordination, SAP support, and translation where I can bridge Japanese stakeholders and global teams, mentor offshore staff, and drive reliable, culturally-aware delivery.

I am a Japanese-English bilingual project coordinator and translator with hands-on experience supporting SAP projects, cross-functional teams, and Japanese clients. I have delivered high-volume, accurate translations and interpretations across domains including SAP FI/SD/MM, ad-tech AI, healthcare, hardware, and software, while acting as a bridge between Japanese stakeholders and global teams.

I have led transitions and onsite handovers in Japan, trained offshore teams for go-live, and supported PMO activities, documentation, and issue resolution. I hold JLPT N1 and NAT N2 certifications, an MA in English Literature, and practical SAP HANA SD training, and I thrive in roles that require clear bilingual communication, cultural sensitivity, and reliable project coordination.
